Hi Joe - all still available. Which ones are you interested in?

Hi all - I can't work out how to delete or mark this as sold, but the lens has been SOLD. Thanks for the interest. Cheers, Jonathan.

Hi Jonathan,

Is your Bolex moller still available ?

Cheers,

Hi Blaise - yes it is. If you send your email I'll send you some more photos. Cheers, Jonathan.

I have for sale a rare and sought-after Bolex anamorphot 8/19/1.5x lens adaptor. Designed for the H8 cameras, they've found new fame for the superb and distinctive look they bring when used on micro 4/3rds cameras. This one is in excellent condition - a few marks on the barrel to be expected with age, but the optics are clean as a whistle. It's easily mounted to any lenses with stepup rings or readily-available custom anamorphic adaptors. Images attached below.

There are plenty of reviews on the web, and some beautiful test footage from one here: https://vimeo.com/37044086. This is a fantastic, unique and cost-effective addition to any 4/3rd shooters lens set.

Price is US$975. Available to view in Hobart or Melbourne, Australia but happy to send internationally with Paypal fee and shipping additional. More images are available on request - as I can't seem to attach them!

Cheers, Jonathan.

I have for sale four Arri groundglasses. These are standard glasses, so from memory will fit a IIC or a 35III - but others might be able to put me straight on that. They're also great for many viewfinders, including the Kish UDF.

1. 'TV' (4:3) with mounting bracket. In excellent condition.

2. Another 4:3, no mounting bracket, some pencil marks where it has been marked up in a mystery ratio. Tiny mark bottom right, very clean otherwise.

3. 1:1.85, marked up to 16:9 (?) A chip on one side from bad handling, but it doesn't encroach into the picture area. Good for a viewfinder, or general use. No scratches/marks otherwise.

4. Probably a 4:3 but has been taped to 16:9 at some point. Apart from the tape residue (easily removed) it's in excellent condition too.

Each one has a case - happy to sell separately or as a set, pickup or post. The going rate seems to be $150 (AUD) each, and $100 for the one with the mark. They're eyewateringly expensive new. But let's talk - I'm happy to negotiate for a package deal, or if these prices seem out of whack. Postage will be from Melbourne, Australia. Cheers, Jonathan.

( ** I only seem to be able to upload images of 2 of them - message me for more images **)

Hi - I'm looking for Arri III super 35 ground glasses to use in a Panavision director's viewfinder. Preferably with 1.78 and/or 2.35 markings, but anything considered, and any leads as to where I might find one gratefully received. Shipping would be to Australia. Many thanks!

Thanks Olex - that's great to know. Funnily enough, I purchased a very tidy Kinor 16 and lenses at the same time. Shame the 200mm lens won't fit it!

Thanks all - Olex's comment about ex-Russian TV lenses makes perfect sense as I got this lens from a TV station in Vladivostok a couple of months ago when I was there working on a documentary. So it seems it's for an Eclair ACL, and so I have no need for it. Time for eBay I guess... It has a hard case and is in mint condition - anyone keen?

Hi All - I was wondering if anyone can help by identifying the mount on this LOMO 200mm lens? I think it may have belonged to a Konvas 2M but since I don't have one I can't tell. Markings on the lens are 'OKC7-200-1'.

Many thanks,

Jonathan.

Hi there - can anyone recommend what brands of oil and grease are best to use for lubricating the Konvas 1M? I have read that teflon greases are good - does anyone have any brand names or suppliers?

Thanks so much Olex - I'll send an email in the next day or so.

You can visit on my site and check infformation about electrical motors of Konvas cameras.

 

18EP-16APK motor have different speed control electronics and other style of electronics from 17EP-16 APK motor.

 

If you send me letter on olex@a-teleport.com, i can send you more technical ifnormation.

I have experience repair of 18Ep-16 APK motor.

This is motor have crystal sync speed 24 fps, 25 fps, and variable speeds ( not crystal sync ) up to 32 fps.

The motor use 12 v battery for speeds up to 25 fps and additional 12+ 3 v battery for speed up to 32 fps,

Have a few modules : crystal sync module, varuable speed module, battery control module, battery.

But, you need study of user manual up to connect battery, because, the conenct battery with reversal polarity distroy electronics.

I recently purchased a Konvas 7M from a nice bloke called Sergei while I was shooting a documentary in Vladivostok. It hasn't been used for 10 years but looks like it will go OK. It has a 18EP-16APK motor and controller that I can't seem to find any info on - it looks like a 17 motor but with an external controller. Does anyone have any info on how I can get it going? A manual? Circuit diagrams? I can get Russian texts translated if need be - any help would be great.
